UAB - Because they get to have a cool name like “Blazers,” while
FIU’s perfectly cool original nickname “Sunblazers” got ditched for the dumb, pedestrian “Golden Panthers” now shortened to the even-more pedestrian “Panthers.”

Charlotte - The tobacco industry. Duke Energy (nee Duke Power). All the money injected into that state from the nefarious actions of those two industries and you really need more reasons to despise anything from North Carolina?

LaTech - Lose a Jonesboro, Ark., gain a Ruston, La.

Marshall - They snatched quarterback Rakeem Cato from FIU’s clutches. They beat FIU in the 2011 Beef O’Brady’s Bowl.

ODU - That name. First, it’s a nickname for Virginia used by a British king. Second, the school’s kind of fronting by using it. The name makes the school sound like some extremely old 13 Colonies Era institution when it’s really a William & Mary spinoff that didn’t award its first degree until 1956.

Rice - Their enrollment doesn’t exceed G. Holmes Braddock High and even the school tools haven’t seen anything under an A since explaining spitwad physics in first grade. So losing to them brings on a true inferiority complex.

S. Miss - Look at the first alum you’ve heard of. (Brett Favre)

UTEP - Because that Miners’ Pickaxe hand signal looks more like a person with arthritis trying to do the Hook ‘Em, Horns gesture.

UTSA - Former University of Miami football coach Larry Coker wound up there.

The Hearld's Welcome To CUSA Primer

This dude really doesn't want to make any friends does he?

Doesn't matter. Based upon their NCAA academic progress reports no one there can read it anyway.

WHY?

He's from Clayton.

I just bought 6 acres outside of Clayton. I actually like JoCo a lot.

No way! That's my hometown! I love Charlotte, I love Joco, I love the beach, and I love the mountains. NC is easily the most beautiful state in the Union. I just hate a lot of the mentalities people have here. I'm a teacher, so current Political policies make it harder and harder to want to stay here. (not to derail thread and go off on a political discussion though)

Idiot marketers/bureaucrats..... 01-wingedeagle

Absolutely. That has to be one of the worst nicknaming errors in college sports...

Glad to see I'm not the only one scratching my head at adding the FXU twins. Is too late to exchange them for Tx State and Ark State?

Because there are no beloved Southern Miss people in south Florida. Rookie fish-hack.
